Montreal Audio Show - anyone hear the FR30’s?

I was in the PS Audio room at the Montreal Audiofest several times over the course of Saturday, stood and sat in different spots in the big room, with varying amounts of people present.  They were tough to pin down on things like imaging and soundstage, and during one particularly crowded visit I honestly thought they had been wired out of phase.  But what bothered me is, in white, the smoothness and gloss of the finish actually made them look like plastic.  Like enormous versions of cheap desktop iSpeakers on either side of your monitor.

I wonder what Paul is doing with his IRS V’s now?

He moved them into another listening room at PS Audio. He will never get rid of them. Mean too much to him.

Thanks.

Nice to have speakers like that along with them being a barometer for his own efforts.

Does Apple's design team do free-lance work on the side?

@twoleftears 

lol. I immediately thought of that when I first saw them. It’s undeniable in white.  

Yes, PS audio have outsourced the design work.
